The native recycle bin in Active Directory has some significant limitations:
- The native AD recycle bin is operational only from Windows Server 2008 R2 and higher.
- It does not have a user-friendly interface.
- It does not have filters to search for a particular object from the list of deleted or tombstoned objects.
RecoveryManager Plus from ManageEngine provides all these functionalities, making it a necessary component in every IT admin’s arsenal of AD tools.
Highlights of RecoveryManager Plus:
-
Restart-free recovery
Eliminate the need to restart your domain controller to perform recovery operations, ensuring continuous and high availability of domain controllers.
-
Lower forest functional level requirement
Enable the recycle bin in RecoveryManager Plus with just a forest functional level of Windows Server 2003.
-
Recover group membership of deleted objects
Restore the group memberships of deleted user objects along with all the other attributes.
-
Restore passwords on recovery
Restore the last set password for users and computers on recovery.
- User: This feature allows users to log on with their last set password and begin work as soon as the account is restored.
- Computer: This feature enables the computer to rejoin the domain immediately after recovery.
-
Restore the entire container
Recover all the objects present in a deleted container, or just the objects you need, in a single click.
-
Hierarchical restoration
Restore the parent container of an object if it was also deleted with the object.
-
Preview restoration
Prevent restoring wrong values by getting a preview of the value to be restored before the actual restoration process.
-
Advanced search filters
Narrow down search results for deleted objects by restricting the search to a particular OU, object type, or changes made during a specific time interval.
-
User-friendly GUI
With its user-friendly GUI, searching for and restoring objects does not involve complex PowerShell and VB scripting!
-
Automatic recovery of linked objects
Restore all linked objects like groups, direct reports, and manager when deleted user objects are recovered.
-
Forced replication after recovery
Replicate the restored objects to all domain controllers after a successful recovery operation, thereby ensuring consistency in AD data across all domain controllers.
